When you need advanced orthopaedic treatment, this is the place.

At the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery and Rehabilitation at the University of Nebraska Medical Center we offer the resources of a large, university-related hospital with the personal care and attention of a smaller department. Our team of dedicated, caring, health professionals specializes in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of musculoskeletal disorders in children, teenagers, and adults.

Our department provides quality, cost-effective care to more than 35,000 patients each year from Nebraska, the Midwest, and around the world. Several of our physicians are recognized each year on the annual "Best Doctors in America" list and many serve the profession as leaders in local, state, national and international scientific organizations.

In addition to outstanding, individualized patient care, physicians and scientists in the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery and Rehabilitation are building a world-class research program. As a result of the innovative research being done here, department researchers are attracting an increasing amount of external and international funding and acclaim, and have presented their results at prestigious national and international scientific and academic conferences.
